Chalkboard Lessons From 1917

Pretty cool find when they were doing some renovations. Not 100% UE, but historical and thought I'd share.

Reminds me of some of the chalkboards I find (obviously not that old) but I always like to see the lessons that were left there when the place became abandoned.

This is like my dream find. Finding a place unmolested is of course always the best, but very specific, almost tangible pieces of something that someone touched but hasn't been since, especially something that's usually so fleeting like chalk, is just… damn.

This is awesome.
It's basically like stepping back into that class. I do hope they preserve them, somehow, beyond just pictures.

This is pretty great. I should upload my own pictures of an abandoned schoolhouse and the chalkboard in it.

That really is amazing that it's all there after almost a century of must, mold and the elements! It reminds me of the twilight zone, just taking a step back into time

Love stuff like this. Reminds me of this neon light find in LA a while back.

Wow, this is amazing!! It's crazy to think that there are still things like this and that light that have truly survived the test of time.

Reminds me of one of my first finds, a guard house on top of an abandoned rail bridge. Completely untouched since the 1960's when it was shut down. The only way in was through a small gap in an open window where the only access was by traversing wires, 150 feet above a river. Once inside I found old rolodexes blueprints, time cards, tools, and so much more. I have been hooked ever since but I have never found anything quite so...Pure.



Never waste a day.
